HOWTO: skype 2.0 under kubuntu with an HP pavilion web cam

Skype 2.0 is working with the web cam integrated in my HP laptop! under KUbuntu Gutsy, even! This was enough of a chore I wanted to document it for the search engines.

First, I followed the instructions here .

Then sound wasn't working, and this fixed it.

Then I had a weird issue where the other person couldn't hear me, but I could hear them. Dicking with KMix didn't help, but after I opened alsamixer at the command line and fiddled around, it was fine!

It basically worked out of the box!
